Laboratory practical In this section will be valued:

- The work carried out by the students in the laboratory.
- The questionnaire done at the end of each practicel lessons.
- The test with questions related to the work carried out during the practical lessons. It will be done after the practical lessons, in the final test of the subject.

Attendance at laboratory experiments is mandatory.

To overcome the subject the student should reach at least 50% of the maximum possible score for this activity.

Other comments on the Evaluation

The participation of students in any of the assessment activities of the subject will involve the assignment of a grade. Regarding this point, attendance at the laboratory sessions (two or
more), realization of 20% of the exercises proposed by the professor and
the realization of tests will be considered.

The
final grade of the subject will be the weighted addition of the marks for all the sections, provided that the
required minima are reached. If the exam score is
lower than required minimun, the final grade will be the one obtained for "Question exam" (60%).

The final grade, if higher than 7 points, can be standardized so that the highest mark can reach a value of up to 10 points.


In July

In the call for the subject in July, the evaluation will be similar, maintaining the marks obtained by the students through the problems and/or issues solving during the course and the
laboratory experiments.

The exams section can be repeated in July. It will be carried out a global test in which the competences acquired will be evaluated. The student must achieve a minimum mark of 3.5 points out of 10 so that the result of this test will be taken into account in the global mark of the subject. This result will substitute the marks obtained for the tests carried out during the semester.

The
final grade of the subject will be the
weighted addition of the marks for all the sections, as long as the
required minima are reached. If this is not the case, the final mark for the subject will be the one obtained for global test multiplied by 0.6.

In case that the mark in July was lower than the one obtained in the end of semester evaluation, the official mark will be this last one.

Global assessment option

The application for this evaluation option must be submitted in the time
and manner determined by the Center, which will be published prior to the
academic start. Given the experimental nature of the practices and seminars,
attendance at them is mandatory to be eligible for this evaluation option. Failure to attend the
practices, with no justified cause invalidates this possibility, as well as the
opportunity for extraordinary evaluation (2nd opportunity).


Date, time and place of exams will be published in the
official web of Marine Sciences Faculty: http://mar.uvigo.es/alumnado/examenes/

Finally, students are strongly requested to fulfil a honest
and responsible behaviour. It is considered completely unacceptable any
alteration or fraud (i.e., copy or plagiarism) contributing to modify the level
of knowledge and abilities acquired in exams, evaluations, reports or any kind
of teacher’s proposed work. Fraudulent behaviour may cause failing the course
for a whole academic year. An internal dossier of these activities will be
built and, when reoffending, the university rectorate will be asked to open a
disciplinary record.
